Strength Tester #1

This thing was inspired by Thomas Sanladerer's excellent (and fun!) video on the strength of various materials. While it is true you can build anything with a 3D printer, you need to understand the material properties if you're going to print parts as structural members. This part is used to determine tensile (and potentially compression) strength of a 3D printed material. This hosted file keeps creator credit and license details.
